Self-Help for Serial Killers - by Asia MacKay (Hardcover)

Book Synopsis

In this rollicking sequel to A Serial Killer's Guide to Marriage, two (mostly) reformed serial killers discover something more deadly than murder: a midlife crisis.

"As funny as it is familiar . . . A perfect read for anyone who has ever tried to maintain a hobby while raising a toddler."--Tasha Coryell, author of Matchmaking for Psychopaths

Homework. Housework. Homicide. You can do it all!

Hazel and Fox have it all: two children, a beautiful home, and a late-night habit of eliminating people who deserve it. Yet work-life balance is hard when you want to kill bad men but raise good kids.

With a school mum tyrant on Haze's case, and Fox struggling with performance anxiety after a botched kill, things are spiraling. Therapy isn't helping, and bullet journaling has taken on a whole new meaning. . . .

But when they accidentally draw a dangerous group to their doorstep, the couple must pull it together--and fast. Because surviving in suburbia is no longer just a challenge. Now it's a real fight for their family's lives.

And it turns out, self-help starts with staying alive.
